I was hungry. You fell off the building and landed in a skip. It was cool. How did I get here? I dragged you. And what about you, Sam? How did you get to this place? I came here through the Wave. Just like all the other kids. The other kids? All the kids from home. Where are they now? The ghosts took them. Ghosts?! I don't know what those things are, but I'm pretty sure they're not ghosts. (ELECTRONIC BUZZING FLARES) DISTORTED: Rose is right, Sam. (GASPS) There's no such thing as ghosts. The Wave is a portal. Those who can focus their minds have the entire universe at their feet. You are one of those people, Rose. (POIGNANT MUSIC) I wouldn't do that. (HOLOGRAM FIZZES) I'm not actually there. This is just a holographic projection. (CLICKS TONGUE) Pretty cool, right? But I watched you die. They beamed me away just in time. 'They'? I'll explain later. But right now, we need to get you out of there. 'There'? Where exactly is 'there'` 'here'? Actually, it's nowhere. Not helpful. You're somewhere between the past, the present and the future. Trapped in the darkness. Yeah. Still not helpful. Imagine the universe is a giant green jelly. Forget it. We need to get going, if that's all I need to know. Come on, Sam. Uh, the kid has to stay. This is a one person, one trip kind of deal, I'm afraid. I'm not leaving him here. Look, I've figured out a way to save Eliza and return balance to the universe, but I can't do it without you. Yeah, that's what Dad said too. Dad was wrong. (GHOSTLY SHRIEKING IN DISTANCE) Run and hide, Sam. I'll be back for you. (GHOSTLY SHRIEKING INTENSIFIES) I promise I'll be back. If you come back, I can't guarantee I can help. You could be trapped here. Forever. I'm not leaving him again. Now, are we doing this or not? (WHOOSH!) DISEMBODIED: You've got to make that jump. But why the jump? And no analogies this time. Just plain English. Time travel is possible. It's all about order and precision. In your case, you've got to make that jump right about now. OK. According to my calculations, there's a 48% chance you'll make it. What ` so a 52% chance I'm gonna fall to my death? Don't focus on the negative. Make the jump. (DRAMATIC MUSIC INTENSIFIES) (GASPS) (GRUNTS) (PANTS, GASPS) (HAUNTING MUSIC) (SERENE MUSIC) (HANDHELD DEVICE WHIRRS LIGHTLY, BEEPS) (MONITOR BEEPS) (DEVICE WHIRRS LIGHTLY, BEEPS) She's clean. You made it. Well, there was a 48% chance I would. Actually, it was more like 32%. I didn't want to freak you out. Come on. There's someone I need you to meet. (WIND HOWLS) (INTERCOM CHIMES) AUTOMATED VOICE: T-minus 36 hours, 12 minutes to dimensional frame shift. (INTERCOM BUZZES) AUTOMATED VOICE: Attention. All security personnel assemble in Docking Bay B15. Mum. Rose. I would have greeted you personally, but there was only a 27% chance that you'd make it, so I thought it would be better if I stayed here and worked on a backup plan. I knew you'd understand. Well, to be honest, I` Welcome... to Prometheus. AUTOMATED VOICE: Dr Buckner,... Come on. ...please report Lab 218. Please, Dr Buckner to Lab 218. We've been observing you, Eliza and Tom here right from the very start, and we've attempted to help on several occasions, but the entity that you call the Walking Man has blocked us at every turn. We've discovered a way to reset the space-time continuum and create a new timeline. Effectively returning the world back to the way it was before Prometheus. Yeah? What's the catch? We need you to travel back and confront Eliza. Or, more precisely, the dark creature that's taken her over. Distract her long enough for us to do what we need to do. Why me? The real Eliza. Your sister. A part of that Eliza still exists. You're the only one who can reach out to that part and make her fight back against the Darkness. You've done it before. Of course, you have a 74% chance that the evil Eliza will disintegrate you on sight, but you're our only hope. We don't need an answer right away. Just take your time to think it over. You have precisely one minute, 24 seconds. Mm. No pressure. You're angry with me. You tried to kill our entire family. I was a different man. Hm. You gotta understand. He'd been through so much, seen so many dreadful things. He truly believed he was doing the right thing. And who are you ` another Michael from another alternate reality? Same man. Different perspective. You don't have to do this, Rose. You told me, before you left the first time, to look after them. 'No matter what happens, 'keep them safe.' And that's exactly what I did as the entire world fell apart around us, so, no, I won't be giving up on them this time. (EXHALES SHARPLY) Gonna bring Eliza home. AUTOMATED VOICE: Initiate primary coupling sequences. Coupling sequences initiated. All you need to do is focus on Eliza, and the portal will take you directly to her. Here. This might help. It's Eliza's Walkman. AUTOMATED VOICE: Align multi-dimensional containment shields. Shields aligned. (POIGNANT MUSIC) AUTOMATED VOICE: T-minus 2 minutes and 15 seconds to dimensional frame shift. I love you. (BEEP! BEEP!) AUTOMATED VOICE: T-minus 10 seconds to dimensional frame shift. (BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!) (ZIP!) (REVERBERATING BUZZING) (REVERBERATING BUZZING) AUTOMATED VOICE: Five, four,... three,... two,... one. Engage primary reactor. Frame shift stabilising. (BUZZING INTENSIFIES) (WHOOSH!) (BUZZING INTENSIFIES, VORTEX WHOOSH) (VORTEX WHOOSH INTENSIFIES) (DISTANT, SINISTER MUSIC) Unbelievable. I turn my back for a minute and my sister is trying on my throne for size. Eliza, I know you're in there. There is no Eliza! I am sick and tired of the sound of your voice. Rose, it is really time for you to die. * Vodafone TV allows you to switch easily from your TV to your tablet or your mobile phone, giving you freedom like never before. The future is exciting. Ready? Yeah, I did lie to you, Rose. I'm here to destroy this world, not save it. (BOOM!) (GASPS) * You didn't actually think your plan would work?! I could see you between worlds. Of course I didn't. Then why did you come back? I have a proposition for you. A proposition? Let them go, and I'll tell you all about it. You're in no position to bargain. You know, you're not as powerful as you think you are. Yes, you can see across all of the worlds, but you can't travel between them. You're trapped in this one. And that's why you prey on the weak-minded. It must be so frustrating for you. Oh, look at you. Trying to get in my head. How sad. I can give you the ability to travel from world to world at will. Let them go, and I'll tell you how. Release them. What? Do it. But, Rose... Take them as far away from here as possible. Go! (OMINOUS MUSIC) BRISKLY: Well? Leave Eliza and move into me. (LAUGHS) That's it? Yes. Through me, you can use the Wave to travel to any place in time and space you want. Through me, you can wreak havoc, and no one will be able to stop you. Why are you offering me this? What do you get in return? I... I just want a world where my family can live in peace. SOFTLY: You're not buying any of this, are you? Look, I know Rose. This is a trick. We have to stick to the plan ` the one that we've been working towards right from the beginning. Plans change. SOFTLY: You can't do that. OK? I have sacrificed everything for you. You have been a loyal servant. Servant? You chose me. I am the chosen one. Not any more. (WHOOSH!) Fine. I agree to your terms. I will send your family away to a place where they can live out their sad little lives in peace. They will be safe if you keep up your end of the bargain. If this is some kind of trick, I will wipe them from the face of existence. (WHOOSH!) (SINISTER DRUM MUSIC) (STATIC CRACKLES) (REVERBERATING WHOOSH) (SINISTER DRUM MUSIC) (THUNDER ROLLS IN DISTANCE) (THUNDEROUS RUMBLING INTENSIFIES) (WHOOSH!) (AIR REVERBERATES) DISTORTED: Where have you brought us? What is this place? It's our new home. Something's wrong here. Take us back. No. Before I destroy your family, I will make them suffer in ways you cannot imagine. No, you won't. Cos we're both trapped here. Trapped? There's no Wave in this world. We're both stuck in this place forever. (WIND HOWLS) You betrayed me. (GHOSTLY SHRIEKING) (SHRIEK!) I'll, uh, let you get acquainted with the locals.

(OMINOUS MUSIC) Sam, are you here? You came back. Of course I did. We're gonna be all right. (GHOSTLY SHRIEKING IN DISTANCE) We can't stay here. Get your stuff. (WHOOSH!) (REVERBERATING BUZZING) Tom, is that you? (DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS) I'm hungry. I want breakfast. MUFFLED: Ask Mum. She's not here. What? She's at Pilates. SIGHS: Oh. Pilates. Pilates! I'm late for work. (PANTS) What about breakfast? You're old enough to get your own breakfast. Yeah, well, where's the fun in that? (DOOR CLOSES) I've definitely broken something. Oh, stop being so dramatic. No, I heard something snap during downward-facing dog. Stretch, then. Yeah, well, Pilates is stretching. (CHUCKLES) Good morning. Morning. You're gonna be late for work. Yeah, well, I had to make your son breakfast. Oh. You are old enough to get your own breakfast. I'll drop you off. Thank you. Awesome. Me too? I've gotta pick up a neon-sign transformer from Nigel. Let me change my shirt. Hey, what's that smell? Oh, that's right. Your feet. What's that grating noise? Oh, that's right. Your annoying voice. You're annoying. I know I am, but what are you? Cut it out. Get in the car. No! (GROANS) DRAMATICALLY: Hang on. This is where the fun begins. Wait! I'm late for work. Sorry. I slept in. Oh, yeah. I'm not surprised. You came in late last night. I wasn't that late. All right, shut up, buckle in. Where was I? That's right. DRAMATICALLY: This is where the fun begins! ALL: Dad. (THUNDER RUMBLES IN DISTANCE) (THUNDER CRACKS) That didn't sound good. Relax, Dad. I'm 99.9% certain it's only rain.
